EVALUATION OF THE DIFFERENCES IN CHARACTERIZATION AND CLASSIFICATION OF THE ROCK MASS QUALITY
(2015)
<p>In the construction of a tunnel, the characterization of the rock mass is performed in three different steps, in the pre-investigations, in the engineering geological forecast and in the tunnel mapping during construction. There has in previous work been ...
